    I was part of a bridal party and the bride chose these lovely strapless dresses and I was the only fatty. We got the pictures back around Christmas and while I didn't look as bad as I thought I was definitely out of place. My dress was a 18 and everyone else had a size 4 or smaller. My arms looked atrocious though. They were/still are HUGE!!!
    January 2012 I decided to do something about my weight. I was tired of being the fat girl and tired of squirreling away in the back for group photos and turning down invites. My fat girl problems end here.

    Honestly I have low cholesterol, triglycerides and everything so that was not the wake up call for me. When I say low all numbers are in the range of 45-65 way low.
    Reality is I have a metabolic disorder and my doctor is being very proactive at this time with my health and wellness.
    Personally, I am unsure if there was ever a moment or than just a desire to obtain a more healthy weight.
